1987 Movie figs in MotUC?

Does anyone, besides me, hope to see Frank Langella as Skeletor, and Dolph Lundgren as He-man the in MotUC line? I hate that movie, but for some reason I'd love to have toys from it. Even less likely, but no less awesome would be toys of Evil-lyn, Sorceress, Man-at-arms, Teela, etc. (sorry no Blade, Karg or Gwildor love from me. None for Lubic either. Blech!)

Would these even be possible, I mean does Mattel have the rights to make toys based on those designs?

Sorry if this has been discussed already, I tried the search and didn't find anything.

I think they would be great figures.No matter how one feels about the movie,the look of the charachters I think were awsome,except Skeletor should not have had eye balls.They could of put some black mesh over it to try and hide them.I may be in the minority,but I still love that movie.I think they could do the designs,but not the likeness of real people,unless they paid for the rights to use them.

I'd love to see them, I am a huge fan of the movie, despite its flaws it has such a great feel to it. However, I think id rather wait a while until new characters are done rather than varients of HM & Skelly (although theyd be the most awesome varients ever!)

I'd take the wait and see approach. I really didn't like the movie, however, I am a completist so I'd probably buy them. Gwildor is at the top of my list of least favorite original figures along with Orko, and Snout Spout (mini statue HUGE improvement).

I would, but not if it meant having to give up other figure slots per month.

I would prefer something along the likes of a movie-themed boxed set. Depending on how much interest there was it could be a two pack or perhaps something grander which could include several movie-themed characters.

The movie characters are something that I've always had in the back of my mind as a perfect fit for this line. I'd buy them all. True, I think the movie is a mess but I'd jump at the chance to grab any and all movie figures. I'm buying everything MOTUC anyway. Someone mentioned the god Skeletor, I hadn't thought of that but that would be totally awesome. How about a Julie? I had a big 12 year old crush on her back in the day.

Im hoping for the movie characters to be made. They were great. I loved the movie and the characters are good. For those that dont lime the movie try the comic that came out i guess its the adaptation. i found it a few years ago on the web. The site just lost my mind. But I got it cheap and its abit more pg-13 if I remember right.

But a definite yes to the figures.
